200 miles? You go through a tank of gas every 200 miles? wow

have seen this talked about before. can't remember exactly what the issue was though. Think it's a solenoid issue or purge valve but dont quote me on that.

You can try a search for 'fuel vent valve'. From what I found in old notes; Check fuse E6. There is a vent valve on top of the fuel tank & under the battery tray that can cause it and also a valve on the filler neck beneath the fender.

Those are the most likely, but there's also the charcoal canister and evap valve under the engine intake left side.
